You have a longer time in this community than I.

Why not you make a list?

10. Semthex kernel

The kernel that started it all! Semthex kernel allowed for a greater variety of processors and hardware. This was before my time so I shall just leave it at that.

I packaged both semthex and Vitaliy patched kernel, in my release. I still talk to semthex lol (I am friends with him on FB). I let ppl make a choice and exposed those kernels to the largest osx86 user base, and we all know what happened there :)
All I am saying is that kernel didn't start it all


I get the picture, this is your top ten list, not the top ten list

Yes, JaS was the first, but they didnt make the biggest impact. Kalyway was and is the most popular OSx86 distro in our history.

As I said, I wasnt around for Tiger, so I have a pro-Leopard and beyond eye. You could be more correct.

And yes, it needs editing; I made that stoned.

I had millions of dl's and helped for years in the comunity, I did releases from 10.4.3 all the way up to 10.5.4. I carried old hardware and supported it long after others thought I should drop it. I was here with maxxuss and helped patch the nx bit in 10.4.3 to allow booting on cpu's without it. yes its a simple patch now. I also released update packages for my distros. I have to say I like Kalyway and he is a great guy, but I was the first and I even advised the later guys on how to repackage and patch things like..mpg and osinstall.dist then later osinstall and adding in custom packages to the installation for hardware support.

Just sayin :)

Also deadmoo (vmware image from 10.4.1 dev kit leaked) that started it all!!! and maxxuss should have received a mention :)
